User reviews
Users appreciate the app's simplicity, customization options, and effective core podcast features. However, recurring problems such as unexpected app crashes, playback glitches, loss of downloaded files, and limited advanced controls diminish the experience. The app is favored by those who prefer minimal complexity but would benefit from improved stability and enhanced playlist management.
Pros
- Simple, clean, and easy to use interface preferred by users seeking minimalistic podcast experience.
- Customizable features including playback speed and RSS feed functionality.
- Reasonable ad experience with option to remove ads via in-app purchase.
- Good episode discovery and queue management features suitable for efficient listening.
- Stable playback that resumes near where it stopped for most users when it works properly.
Cons
- Frequent bugs including app crashes, playback issues like repeated restarting or pausing unexpectedly, and failure to remember playback position.
- Downloaded podcast episodes sometimes disappear or are not accessible offline despite indicating they were downloaded.
- Playback controls are limited on external devices such as car controls; inability to skip seconds forward from car media buttons.
- Lack of expected advanced playlist controls like multi-episode selection, sorting, and favorites for quick access.
- Issues with scrolling through long lists of episodes and displaying all unlistened episodes properly.
